MY WORKS


A Little Intro

I am a storyteller at heart.  It's in my DNA.  Telling stories and connecting with others is my passion. I've spent over 25 years working to grow and improve my craft, and I have the experience you need to help elevate your digital content.

 

As the lead creative, director, producer, and pretty much jack of all trades, I have extensive knowledge of cinematography, lighting, pre-production planning, commercial directing, social and asset distribution.   I've worked with large compaines, small businesses and non-profits that all have amazing stories to tell.  MTV, CBS News, CBS Sunday Morning, 60 Minutes, NBC Nightly News, The Today Show, TV2- Denmark, are just a few of the clients we've helped over the past 25 years.  We've helped Charlotte based RSM Marketing, TNS Global,  Procter & Gamble, Intercontinental Hotels Group, and Cincinnati based non-profit's like The Lukemia & Lymphoma Society of Greater Cincinnati,  City Gospel Mission, Friendship United Methodist Church, and the Finneytown Local School District.

 

As director of photography I've worked on a variety of productions and can help your team craft a story that will be meaningful.  There are so many amazing stories to tell, and no two clients are the same.  We can help you with that creative brief, ideate, and come up with a plan that produces premium deliverables at a fair price.  We don't do weddings, event videos, or webinars.  There are other talented folks that can help you with that.  If you are looking to elevate your brand, make your voice heard in a crowded environment, we can help.  Everyone want's video these days.  Let's talk. 

 

I'm currently working on a documentary film that has taken our crews from Wisconsin to New York here in the US, to overseas visiting multiple cities in both Poland and Israel.  That film is still in production, and the trailer is being edited at this time.  Additional shoots are in the works, so stay tuned.


I’m always available for interesting collaborations and fun side projects. If you would like to work together, feel free to get in touch.
